Title: Lake ???????????
Post by: nystromgeorgie on April 12, 2006, 08:22:50 PM

What woman puts up with this kind of abuse anymore?  I'd leave him in the middle of the race, go home, and file for divorce...immediately.

Mentally abused women don't know any better , they think this is normal ...she's a victim and I feel sorry for her .

Wow, odd nystromgeorgie. That is the same story as me. My wife mentally abused me also, or so my siblings and some of her family have told me. I never saw it, but in retrospect I see it now. Another odd thing, Karen left me a month before our 13th wedding anniversary because I started to stand up for myself. Yea, I was a mess, but I just assumed it was my job to try to please her.

Obviously crankiness is no excuse for abuse.  I just hope Michelle watches this show and cringes at every stab Lake takes at her....and that she has some supportive friends and family who talk some sense into her.  Abusers rarely change...it's the victims who must.

My husband and I couldn't believe what and how Lake treated and said to Michelle.  We thought even on air, Jonathan never called Victoria that name.  If he did, we didn't see it.  And then for Lake to Michelle to basically cool it cause they were being taped.  I couldn't believe it.   :groan:

If I was near Lake, I'd be like  :knuckles: (:;)  and see how he likes it.

Jeffrey, I'm glad you stood up for yourself.   :jumpy:   You're a good guy and can't imagine why your wife would treat you that way.

She's one of those people that thinks they are always right, and it's her way or the highway. Her aunt told me recently how one year in school she pretended she was deaf to get more attention. After the doctor looked at her, he said she was fine. The parents didn't do much after that because they ran a farm and I guess didn't have time for such nonsense. So she got what she wanted, attention.

Now back to Lake, who knows what kind of childhood he had, but one thing is for sure, he's got a temper! Another great trait shared by my wife, ex-wife.

I was so glad to see them go, especially after Lake's behavior in the last episode...

You just know from the way he said that Fran shouldn't act that way being a dr.s wife that he expects michelle to act a certain way..very sad

I think Lake needs therapy to see why he gets so angry that he has to lash out at Michelle.  As much as he annoyed me he seemed to be personable when he was in a good mood.  Jeffreysg--sorry to hear you went through some awful times but hopefully everything is well. :bny7: :bny7: :bny7:
